new pbj model

[theetruscan]

Alright, here's some wear. Not good at the pictures, but I've got some dark (true to color) and some light that really show off the contrast. These have been worn about 70 days. Cold Soaked on day 1, washed on day 18 (cooking accident), washed again yesterday (day 70). They've been worn on a bike probably something like 8-12 miles every day I've worn them, so a fair bit.

Before wash:

After wash, the dark colors are too dark but much closer to accurate, they just don't show the falling or whiskers well at all:

^ Those are the very first pics of those jeans that I've seen that actually made me want a pair.

Glad these are getting what they deserve...great color....

[Thorns]

I need 6 months to go by so I can see how these turn out!

same

and i'm wearing mine as i type:eek:

i really do recommend these

and the hues theetruscan caught in the last shot are what make these amazing to wear..

once you get them worn in a bit

you can find nearly every shade of indigo/blue in the spectrum

There is a sample of a worn-in pair on the PBJ blog. The contrast came out great on this one.

^wow, those look pretty good... but its interesting how there is major fading on the thighs/lap but not really anywhere else...

So, I'm a bit confused. Those have the new leaf back pocket. I've been wearing mine (all but 1 month) since the original no-leaf back pocket hit BiG. The leaf is recent isn't it? Also, there's no wallet, crotch, stacking, or hem fading at all. Are those worn in naturally or are they a wash of some kind?

[horriblyjollyjinx]

those are pre-distressed.

the user on that blog said these jeans were introduced on aug 22. they are probably a wash of some kind, the fades do not look like they are a result from natural wear.

the color is so rich

i can't believe i was debating selling my (pre-leaf) pair

[hetero4sho]

bored.. first post.

[poly800rock]

i wish it wasn't slubby

[beatle]

I tried these on while at BIG last month - and the denim feels very smooth - yet sturdy..

I agree on the slubby part - but it's not fuzzy ..

It's simply beautiful...

You can see I am trying to tempt you, Poly

my 007s, starting to show some wear:

[grilled cheese]

Looking good, but damn yo, do you keep a tennis ball in your back pocket? By the way, I posted pics of my 008s in the how jeans fit thread.

[beatle]

What's in your left pocket ? Cut in half tennis ball ??

[gimmegimme]

I think it might be a tumor! :eek:

[>++fishb0neR]

left ass-cheek tumor?

ha!

nice jwied

i've been doing some yardwork for my fam

lovely layers of grime and the nice stench of earth/dirt

A couple of pages back shows the XX-007 that will be stocked at Take 5 in Hong Kong. It has the leaf. I'm pretty sure that all PBJs from now on will have the leaf.

Actually they do have the tab but it's comming off the coin pocket on the right hip. If anyone's really desperate for that little detail and has the sewing skills it should be possible to get rid of the embroidered leaf and move the tag.

On some leve, I actually like the leaf. Unfortunately, I have been told that from afar iut looks like I have a piece of gum stuck to my bumski. Oh well, that's the breaks in this street game.

That made me laugh.

My PBJ's are blank.

My 007s are blank, my 008s have the leaf. I like that the leaf is there, but I think it's more flattering without.

That's the reason I went to the trouble of getting ones with a tab. I like the leaf as an idea, but the first thing I thought was 'looks like gum'.

Hmm..I LOVE the slubbyness...maybe its because it was so new to me when I first got em.

Does everyone get that odd bump on the fly like the pictures right here ^^ ?

Mine do that too...it looks/feels kinda funky to me.

Anyone know where I can get a tab for mine?
